Good day papourien,

That card was far ahead of its time šŸ™‚
This card supports more screens than 2 however you will have use the Eyfinity feature of the card. You do this by using the DP ouput of the card. When connecting a Screen with DP in put you can use a passive adapter, when using a screen without DP input you will need to use an active adapter with Eyefinity support.
Which HD7770 card do you have (brand/Type)? So i see the outputs on the card …
If i understand correctly your screens areĀ 
Screen 1 is VGA inputĀ 
Screen 2 and 3 have DVI input.
All screens are 1920 x 1080 ?

hi mst,
the graphic cart is a msi R7770 2PMD1GD5/oc
dvi-i + hmid + 2 mini display
and the screens are one 1920×1080 and two 1024×1280
it’s a cheap configuration but realy usefull, i used it with on a intel hd505 chipset
i dont really need eyefinity, i prefer 3 independant ecran for multitask
after all i read, my config would works with a active adaptaeur, but the both i’ve tried din’t works
i’m thinking about buying a miniDP/DP cable for testing my dp output on friend’s native DP screen
maybee a good active adaptater fix my problem…
if not, i’ll change one screen…

Hi papourien,
If your screens have HDMi input a CAC-2170 will do fine,
If it is only DVI than a CAC-1152 will be good.

that would be depend on the cable but could be an issue yes.
certainly if your cable is an active one it will most probably not work
